In Re Johnny Frank Godfrey, 888 F.2d 1386, 4th Cir. (1989)
2d 1386
Unpublished Disposition
Mandamus relief is not appropriate where there are other means available by
which the petitioner could secure the desired relief. In re Beard, 811 F.2d 818,
826 (4th Cir.1987). As Godfrey may seek the relief he requested under 28
U.S.C. Sec. 2255, the petition for writ of mandamus or prohibition is denied.
The motion to proceed in forma pauperis is granted. We dispense with oral
argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided
authoritatively.
PETITION DENIED.
